Applies to: This Instruction applies to Coast Guard civilian personnel requesting details within the Coast Guard and to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
Detail means a temporary assignment of an employee to a different position or statement of duties and responsibilities for a specified period after which the employee returns to his or her original position.
An employee must meet applicable medical standards, drug testing requirements, and security clearance requirements.
All Coast Guard civilians covered by this Instruction detailed to other DHS components require the approval of the operating civilian personnel offices of both organizations.
